Late last Thursday afternoon, Gayle Aaronson of Montauk, 59, was stopped in traffic on Montauk Highway near Amagansett just west of Abraham’s Path when her 2016 Honda S.U.V. was rear-ended by a blue “newer-style” Range Rover.
Ms. Aaronson got out and asked the man at the wheel to pull off the highway and onto the shoulder, but, she told police, he ignored her and drove away. She complained of a head injury, but declined medical attention.
Four people were assessed by responders from the Montauk Fire Department, but declined further treatment, after they were struck by a woman trying to park her Honda sedan near the Montauk Brewing Company. Also in Montauk, a Volvo S.U.V. struck an e-bike on Main Street, resulting in injuries to the 13-year-old bicyclist.
A caller reported three youths lying “in the middle of Suffolk Street,” next to a black S.U.V., at around 3 in the morning on July 14 in Sag Harbor. The three told police they were waiting for a friend and were out on the street because their vehicle had no air-conditioning.
Toyotas were on a tear this week, with four accidents on local roads resulting in injuries.
East Hampton Town police made three late-night arrests last week, all of them ending in felony charges, from assault to forgery to drug possession.
